Fossil Maniac Charles location: Route 114 [anchor=2]2. EXCAVATION SITES AND RELATIVE SPAWNS[/anchor] Haunted Site / Mineral Site / Feral Site / Glacial Site / Natural Site / Historical Site [anchor=21]2.1 GENERAL INFORMATION[/anchor] There are different tiers of expertise in archaeology. The tier depends on the discoveries you have made. You get "discovery points" by smashing the rocks inside each site. With every tier you get access to other pokemons/items. You can verify your tier by Gingery Jones in Glacial Site. If you encounter a spawn you're not "expert" enough to get, the pokémon will flee or the item gets destroyed. If u are in range of the neccessary number of discoveries there is a chance that a pokemon wont flee (i found 3 shroomish with around 1k discoveries on my secondary account. The first and third fled but i was able to catch the second one) In every site you can find items: - fresh water / escape rope / tiny mushroom / ultra ball / rare candy - All Kanto / Hoenn / Kalos fossils after 4800 discoveries but they can still break without ms [anchor=22]2.2 SHINY ROCKS[/anchor] There is 1 shiny rock in every site, you need the item "pickaxe" (75c in the shop) to find something there. Besides the pokemons from normal rocks u can find special pokemons and items there.
